This weekend was amazing.
Friday I sent out with a handful of girl from my league on a bar crawl and did some recruiting (though I sometimes wonder how effective that is...usually I think it's just an excuse to dress up and drink a lot haha).
Saturday was a rough early morning practice,and then I headed up to Burbank to NSO for Angel City Derby Girls Rocket Queens vs Jet City's Pink Pistols, and it was AH-MAZE-ING!!!!! I got to work with the lovely Hannah Grenade of ACDG, who has been a ref-mentor to our league. I learned a new NSO position which was pretty easy. Was a little star struck by some of the wonderful girls and refs!!! I think DNN was there, so I may have to dig for it when it comes up in the archives, but I may be on a DNN archived boutcast!!! wink

Annnnnnnnnnnnd today.....

I FUCKING SKATED FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE I BROKE MY ANKLE AND HAD SURGERY BACK IN FEBRUARY!!!!
I went to a basketball court on the beach with one of the girls from our ref crew. Padded up, was scared as shit, and skated for about 30-40 minutes or so. Nothing fancy, I went slow, wasn't shaky, just slow and steady. I was going to be all sly and practice on the side before going back to practice, but I already yapped about it on FaceBook, I couldn't keep my mouth shut. Hahaha. It felt good, I have to take it easy for a while. But it felt good and I faced the initial fear. I even fell and got back up, not so bad. All in all not a bad weekend at all. biggrinbiggrinbiggrin

WOOHOO!!!!! Congratulations for getting right back up on your skates, as it were. Fear can suck it. You are a derby girl, and you cannot be sidelined. biggrin

And agreed about the letting go.
